Drumming improves our gross and fine motor skills.
Check out the Single Paradiddle:
RLRR LRLL
R -Right Hand. L- Left Hand. Can you play it?
Not only is it a physical activity, but a cognitive exercise in itself. The brain tells the body which limb to strike the drum.
It is a great exercise for ADHD and Autism, - for gross, fine motor and coordination skills.
I am taking a limited students for term 2.
Lessons are all inclusive for students with disabilities.
DM me for availability, price and NDIS questions.
Happy Drumming!

This kit has been a little workhorse over the years. It’s been used on drum therapy sessions, rehearsals, practice and even played on a tribute to The Wiggles album! DM me for availability, fees and NDIS enquiries. 🥁😊✌️

Benefits of Drumming for Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD).
Drumming develops memory and increases concentration and attention: By learning to play structured rhythm, beats and compositions, long & short-term memory skills are exercised and extended.
I have limited vacancies for lessons. DM me to get in contact about rates, times and NDIS questions.
